While public recognition is generally encouraged to foster a culture of appreciation and visibility, there are times when discretion is key. For those moments involving sensitive information or low-profile, yet impactful, situations, Awardco offers the ability to send private recognitions. 🤫
What It Is: Awardco allows you to create recognition programs that enable private recognitions, ensuring only the recipient sees the recognition message.
How to Implement:
- Navigate to Recognition Program Settings:
- Go to Admin Portal > Settings > Recognition Programs.
- Create or Edit a Program:
- Click "Add Program" to create a new program or select an existing one to edit.
- Adjust Display Settings:
- In the program settings, go to the "Display" tab.
- Toggle "Post to Social Feed" to "Off." This ensures recognitions within this program remain private.
- Consider Notification Settings:
- Go to the "Notifications" tab. Double check that the correct notification templates are in place.
Why It Matters:
- ✅ Shows appreciation for sensitive or low-profile contributions.
- ✅ Maintains confidentiality and respect.
- ✅ Encourages recognition of all types of valuable behavior.
💡 Pro Tip: Use a clear program name, like "Private Recognition," to help those with access to the program understand when to use it.
